BACKGROUND 1. Field of the Invention

The disclosure relates to a touch device.

2. Description of Related Art

In panel design, a technique that directly fabricates a gate drivingcircuit on an array substrate to replace an external driving chip isknown as Gate drive on Array (GOA) technique. In the display devices ofIn-Plane Switching (IPS) type or Fringe Field Switching (FFS), the gatedriving circuit is usually disposed in a peripheral region of the arraysubstrate without any shielding elements disposed thereon. Therefore,the gate driving circuit is prone to damage caused by ElectrostaticDischarge (ESD).

In order to solve such problem, a transparent conductive layer is formedon an outer surface of a color filter substrate that is far away fromthe array substrate in conventional art, so as to completely cover adisplay region and the peripheral region where the gate driving circuitis located. Indeed, aforesaid method may be used to prevent the gatedriving circuit from damage caused by ESD. However, in today'sincreasing demands for multifunction on electronic products, the displaydevice usually includes a touch function (e.g., an in-cell touch displaydevice). Because the in-cell touch display device has a touch electrodeof in-cell type, it is impossible to dispose the comprehensivetransparent conductive layer for shielding ESD on the outer surface ofthe color filter substrate since electronic properties of elements andthe touch function of the touch electrode may be affected by doing so.Accordingly, it has become an important issue to be addressed as how toeffectively improving the gate driving circuit of the touch displaydevice from damage caused by ESD.

FIG. 1A illustrates a top view of a touch device according to anembodiment of the disclosure. FIG. 1B illustrates a partialcross-sectional view of the touch device of FIG. 1A. For descriptiveconvenience, illustration of some elements is omitted in FIG. 1A andFIG. 1B. Referring to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B together, in the presentembodiment, a touch device 100 a includes an array substrate 110, atleast one gate driving circuit 120 (two of which are schematicallyillustrated in FIG. 1A), an opposite substrate 130 and a shieldingpattern 140 a. The array substrate 110 includes a display region AA anda peripheral region BB connecting the display region AA. In anotherembodiment, the peripheral area BB may surround the display region AA.The gate driving circuit 120 is disposed on the array substrate 110 andlocated in the peripheral region BB. The opposite substrate 130 isdisposed opposite to the array substrate 110. The shielding pattern 140a is disposed between the array substrate 110 and the opposite substrate130. The shielding pattern 140 a projected on the array substrate 110 isformed a first projection, the gate driving circuit 120 projected on thearray substrate 110 is formed a second projection, and the firstprojection at least partially overlaps with the second projection. Inother words, a normal projection of the shielding pattern 140 a on thearray substrate 110 at least partially overlaps with a normal projectionof the gate driving circuit 120 on the array substrate 110.

Specifically, referring to FIG. 1B, the array substrate 110 of thepresent embodiment includes a base plate 112, a plurality of activedevices 114 (one of which is schematically illustrated in FIG. 1B), aplurality of pixel electrodes 116 (one of which is schematicallyillustrated in FIG. 1B), a common electrode 118 and a ground ring 119.The active devices 114 are arranged in array on the base plate 112,disposed in the display region AA, and connected to the gate drivingcircuit 120 and driving by the gate driving circuit 120. Each of theactive devices 114 is composed of a gate G, a gate insulation layer GI,an active layer A, a source S and a drain D. In other words, the arraysubstrate 110 may be considered as a thin film transistor arraysubstrate. The pixel electrodes 116 are disposed on the base plate 112and located in the display region AA, wherein the pixel electrodes 116are electrically connected to the drains D of the corresponding activedevices 114 respectively. More specifically, an insulation layer 170 isdisposed on the active device 114, and the pixel electrode 116 isdisposed on the insulation layer 170, wherein the pixel electrode 116 isextended into an opening 172 of the insulation layer 170 to beelectrically connected to the drain D. The common electrode 118 isdisposed between the opposite substrate 130 and the pixel electrodes 116and located in the display region AA, wherein a normal projection of thecommon electrode 118 on the base plate 112 at least partially overlapswith a normal projection of the pixel electrodes 116 on the base plate112. In other embodiments, the common electrode 118 may also be disposedbetween the base plate 112 and the pixel electrodes 116. That is to say,a location of the common electrode 118 is not particularly limited.

Specifically, referring to FIG. 1B and FIG. 1C together, the commonelectrode 118 of the present embodiment is disposed above the pixelelectrodes 116, and has a plurality of slits 118 a. In other embodimentsnot illustrated, it is also possible that the pixel electrodes 116 arelocated above the common electrode 118, and at least one of the pixelelectrodes 116 and the common electrode 118 includes a plurality ofslits or a plurality of branch patterns. Herein, an insulation layer 175is provided between the common electrode 118 and the pixel electrodes116 to electrically isolate the common electrode 118 from the pixelelectrodes 116. In addition, the ground ring 119 is disposed on the baseplate 112 and located in the peripheral region BB, wherein the gatedriving circuit 120 is located between the ground ring 119 and thedisplay region AA.

It is worth mentioning that, the array substrate 110 is not limited onlyto be disposed as FIG. 1B, but may also be disposed as FIG. 1D and FIG.1E. Specifically, referring to FIG. 1D and FIG. 1E, in a touch devices100 a 1 (or 100 a 2), an active layer A′ of an array substrate 110′ (or110″) adopts Low Temperature Poly-silicon (LTPS). Therefore, activedevices 114′ are top-gate type. That is to say, the active layer A′ isdisposed on the base plate 112; a gate insulation layer GI′ covers theactive layer A′; a gate G′ is disposed on the gate insulation layer GI′;an inner dielectric layer DI covers the gate insulation layer GI′; and asource S′ and a drain D′ are disposed on the inner dielectric layer DIand penetrate through the inner dielectric layer DI and the gateinsulation layer GI′ to be in contact with the active layer A′. Herein,the active device 114′ is a structure of double-gate G′. However, inother embodiments, the active device 114′ may also be a structure ofsingle-gate G′, which is not particularly limited herein.

More specifically, the difference between FIG. 1D and FIG. 1E is that, acommon electrode 118′ in FIG. 1D is disposed between the pixelelectrodes 116 and the base plate 112, a shielding pattern 140 a 1 isstructurally and electrically connected to the common electrode 118′,and the shielding pattern 140 a 1 belongs to the same layer as thecommon electrode 118′ or include the same material as the commonelectrode 118′. In other words, the shielding pattern 140 a 1 and thecommon electrode 118′ are the same layer. ‘Belongs to the same layer’means the shielding pattern 140 a 1 could have the same material withthe common electrode 118′, or use the same manufacturing process withthe common electrode 118′, or use the same photo mask with the commonelectrode 118′. On the other hand, the common electrode 118 in FIG. 1Eis disposed between the pixel electrodes 116 and the opposite substrate130, a shielding pattern 140 a 2 is structurally and electricallyconnected to the common electrode 118, and the shielding pattern 140 a 2belongs to the same layer as the common electrode 118 or include thesame material as the common electrode 118′. In other words, theshielding pattern 140 a 2 and the common electrode 118′ are the samelayer. Further, referring to FIG. 1F, the touch device 100 a of thepresent embodiment further includes a plurality of touch units T,wherein the touch units T are disposed in the display region AA of thearray substrate 110. Herein, based on different sensing methods, thetouch units T may be resistive touch units, capacitive touch units(including self-capacitive touch units or mutual-capacitive touchunits), optical touch units, acoustic wave touch units orelectromagnetic touch units. It should be noted that, the touch units Tillustrated in FIG. 1F indicate locations of the touch sensing pointsrather than specific structures of the touch units T. For instance, thetouch units T being the capacitive touch units may be composed of atleast one touch driving unit in X direction and at least one touchsensing unit in Y direction (which are interchangeable), in anotherembodiment, a plurality of touch driving units in X direction and aplurality of touch sensing units in Y direction, wherein the touchdriving units in X direction and the touch sensing units in Y directionmay be disposed on the array substrate 110 and the opposite substrate130 respectively, and ones of the touch driving units in X direction andthe touch sensing units in Y direction belong to the same layer as thecommon electrode 118 or the pixel electrodes 116. In other words, onesof the touch driving units in X direction and the touch sensing units inY direction and the common electrode 118 or the pixel electrodes 116include the same material. Ones of the touch driving units in Xdirection and the touch sensing units in Y direction and the commonelectrode 118 or the pixel electrodes are the same layer. If the touchunits T are the self-capacitance touch units, driving and sensingoperations are performed simply by the common electrode 118, in anotherwords, each of the common electrodes 118 could have both sensing anddriving function. Because the touch units T of the present embodimentare the self-capacitance touch devices which directly use the commonelectrode 118 to perform the driving and sensing operations, in additionto steps in manufacturing process of the touch device 100 a beingreduced, an overall manufacturing costs and thickness of the touchdevice 100 a may also be effectively reduced.

Particularly, referring back to FIG. 1B, the shielding pattern 140 a ofthe present embodiment is, substantially, structurally and electricallyconnected to the common electrode 118. Accordingly, the shieldingpattern 140 a and the common electrode 118 belong to the same layer,such that the manufacturing costs may be effectively reduced since theyuse the same photo mask. In other words, the shielding pattern 140 a andthe common electrode 118 include the same material, such as a commonelectrode including, for example, an indium tin oxide (ITO), an indiumzinc oxide (IZO), an Al doped ZnO (AZO), an Indium-Gallium-Zinc Oxide(IGZO), a Ga doped zinc oxide (GZO), a Zinc-Tin Oxide (ZTO), In₂O₃, ZnOor SnO₂, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In addition, anormal projection of the shielding pattern 140 a on the array substrate110 completely covers a normal projection of the gate driving circuit120 on the array substrate 110. In other words, the normal projection ofthe gate driving circuit 120 on the array substrate 110 is completelylocated within the normal projection of the shielding pattern 140 a onthe array substrate 110, and the first projection completely covers thesecond projection. Naturally, in other embodiments not illustrated, itis also possible that the normal projection of the shielding pattern 140a on the array substrate 110 partially overlaps with the normalprojection of the gate driving circuit 120 on the array substrate 110,and partially doesn't overlap with the normal projection of the gatedriving circuit 120 on the array substrate 110, and the disclosure isnot limited thereto.

In addition, the opposite substrate 130 of the present embodiment is,substantially, a color filter substrate. As shown in FIG. 1A, a surfacearea of the opposite substrate 130 is, substantially, less than asurface area of the array substrate 110. Furthermore, the touch device100 a further includes a display medium 150, wherein the display medium150 is disposed between the array substrate 110 and the oppositesubstrate 130. Herein, the display medium 150 is, for example, a liquidcrystal layer, but the disclosure is not limited thereto, it could bemicro-led or organic light emitting structure. In addition, the touchdevice 100 a of the present embodiment further includes a sealant layer155, which is disposed between the array substrate 110 and the oppositesubstrate 130, so as to at least seal the display medium 150 in betweenthe array substrate 110 and the opposite substrate 130.

In the present embodiment, the shielding pattern 140 a is disposedbetween the array substrate 110 and the opposite substrate 130, and thenormal projection of the shielding pattern 140 a on the array substrate110 overlaps with the normal projection of the gate driving circuit 120on the array substrate 110. Accordingly, as compared to the transparentconductive layer disposed on the outer surface of the color filtersubstrate in conventional art, the disposition of the shielding pattern140 a of the present embodiment not only improve the possibility of thetouch function of the touch units T from being affected, but alsoprotects the gate driving circuit 120 from damage caused by ESD. Inaddition, because the shielding pattern 140 a and the common electrode118 belong to the same layer in the present embodiment, usage amount thephoto mask may be reduced to effectively reduce the manufacturing costs.

It is worth mentioning that, in another embodiment not shown in thefigure, the shielding pattern 140 a and the pixel electrodes 116 belongto the same layer, but the shielding pattern 140 a and the pixelelectrodes 116 are not structurally and electrically connected. Theshielding pattern 140 a and the pixel electrodes 116 include the samematerial. The shielding pattern 140 a and the pixel electrodes 116 arethe same layer. Such shielding pattern 140 a is electrically connectedto the common electrode 118 through holes of the insulation layerbetween the pixel electrodes 116 and the common electrode 118. In suchembodiment, since the shielding pattern 140 a and the pixel electrodes116 belong to the same layer in the present embodiment, usage amount ofthe photo mask may also be reduced to effectively reduce themanufacturing costs.

It should be noted that the reference numerals and a part of thecontents in the previous embodiment are used in the followingembodiments, in which identical reference numerals indicate identical orsimilar components, and repeated description of the same technicalcontents is omitted.

In other embodiments not illustrated,it is also possible that the pixel electrodes 116 are located above thecommon electrode 118. As shown in FIG. 2, although the shielding pattern140 b and the pixel electrodes 116 belong to the same layer, theshielding pattern 140 b is not structurally and electrically connectedto the pixel electrodes 116. In addition, a normal projection of theshielding pattern 140 b on the array substrate 110, substantially,completely covers a normal projection of the gate driving circuit 120 onthe array substrate 110. Naturally, in other embodiments notillustrated, it is also possible that the normal projection of theshielding pattern 140 b on the array substrate 110 partially overlapswith the normal projection of the gate driving circuit 120 on the arraysubstrate 110, and the disclosure is not limited thereto.

The shielding pattern 140 c and thecommon electrode 118 includes the same material. The shielding pattern140 c and the common electrode 118 are the same layer. In other words,the shielding pattern 140 c of the present embodiment is notelectrically connected to the common electrode 118, the pixel electrodes116 or the ground ring 119. In other embodiments not illustrated, theshielding pattern 140 c may also belong to the same layer as the pixelelectrodes 116, and the disclosure is not limited thereto. In addition,a normal projection of the shielding pattern 140 c on the arraysubstrate 110, substantially, partially overlaps with the normalprojection of the gate driving circuit 120 on the array substrate 110.Naturally, in other embodiments not illustrated, it is also possiblethat the normal projection of the shielding pattern 140 c on the arraysubstrate 110 completely covers the normal projection of the gatedriving circuit 120 on the array substrate 110, and the disclosure isnot limited thereto.

FIG. 4 illustrates a partial cross-sectional view of a touch deviceaccording to another embodiment of the disclosure. Referring to FIG. 4,a touch device 100 d of the present embodiment is similar to the touchdevice 100 a of FIG. 1B, and the major difference between the twoincludes: a shielding pattern 140 d of the present embodiment isdisposed on the opposite substrate 130, and the shielding pattern 140 dis electrically connected to the ground ring 119 through a conductivestructure 160. Specifically, the conductive structure 160 includes asealant layer 162 with electric conductivity, a conductive layer 164 anda conductive hole 166. The sealant layer 162 with electric conductivityis disposed between the shielding pattern 140 d and the conductive layer164, and the conductive hole 166 is disposed between the conductivelayer 164 and the ground ring 119. The shielding pattern 140 dsequentially passes through the sealant layer 162 with electricconductivity, the conductive layer 164 and the conductive hole 166 to beelectrically connected to the ground ring 119. Herein, a material of thesealant layer 162 with electric conductivity is, for example, anadhesive material containing gold particles or other metal particles,and the conductive layer 164, for example, belongs to the same layer asthe pixel electrodes 116 or the common electrode 118, but the disclosureis not limited to the above.

FIG. 5 illustrates a partial cross-sectional view of a touch deviceaccording to another embodiment of the disclosure. Referring to FIG. 5,a touch device 100 e of the present embodiment is similar to the touchdevice 100 a of FIG. 1B, and the major difference between the twoincludes: a shielding pattern 140 e of the present embodiment isdisposed on the opposite substrate 130, and the shielding pattern 140 eis electrically floating. In other words, the shielding pattern 140 e ofthe present embodiment is not electrically connected to the commonelectrode 118, the pixel electrodes 116 or the ground ring 119. Theshielding pattern 140 e is completely in the peripheral region BB.Because a material of a sealant layer 155 a is an insulating material,the shielding pattern 140 e cannot be electrically connected to theelements on the array substrate 110 through the sealant layer 155 a.Therefore, the shielding pattern 140 e is in the state of electricallyfloating.

Further, because the shielding pattern of the disclosure mayalso belong to the same layer as the pixel electrodes or the commonelectrode above the array substrate, usage amount of the photo mask maybe reduced to effectively reduce the manufacturing costs. In addition,the shielding pattern of the disclosure may also be disposed on theopposite substrate, and it falls in the scope of the disclosure forwhich protection is sought as long as the shielding pattern is disposedbetween the array substrate and the opposite substrate, and the normalprojection of the shielding pattern on the array substrate overlaps withthe normal projection of the gate driving circuit on the arraysubstrate. The shielding pattern disposed between the array substrateand the opposite substrate protects the shielding pattern and preventsthe function of shielding the gate driving circuit from being affectedby external scratches, so that a reliability of the device may beensured.
